Course Description

Seminar Overview

Whether your chilled water system keeps people or
equipment cool, this seminar will teach you how to keep it running
efficiently. Students will learn about components used in chilled water
systems, uses and applications of chilled water systems among many
other things. This seminar is perfect for anyone looking to increase
their knowledge about chillers, cooling towers and other chilled water
systems.

This 2-day seminar is just $1100.

Discussion Topics

Day One examines the basics
of chilled water systems including chillers and cooling towers. We’ll do
an overview and review heat theories so students understand why things
happen.
